This is a video from December 15th, and the video is marked indicating that there was an update later in the day.

Yes, back on the 15th, there were still multiple leaks from multiple sources saying different things.

Why would there be a rifle and 2 handguns? He can’t even carry all those at the same time.

ROTFLMAO

You need more practice there is no problem carrying two handguns and a rifle or a rifle and shotgun and two handguns.

It is just a matter of having the proper holsters and slings to make it happen.

just release the autopsy report, specifying the caliber of bullet that killed the victims.

I agree. However, has it been SOP to release the autopsy findings of victims in a massacre? Were they released for Aurora or Ft. Hood? If so, then the Newtown autopsy results should be released at some point.

If, for some reason, the Newtown autopsy results are not released or are redacted for some reason, they will be fanning the flames of conspiracy. If it's not SOP to do so, then someone should file a FOIA request to have them released for public consumption to put this whole thing to bed.

When they talk about an assault rifle, are they using the definition of a fully automatic rifle - that is, a powerful long-barrel rifle that sprays bullets as long as you have the trigger pressed? Is that what the Bushmaster is?

Another prime example of media using spin instead of facts!
They think they are in full control. Now we have a full scale strategy to overcome the Second Amendment, done by idiots and commies who will not wait for or believe actual facts. Now, we the people, must pay the price based on BS.

What would be the point? So he could fire more shots without having to reload? What stopped him from firing everything he had? Or did he fire them all? (I haven’t been following this story much).

And if so, then changing the magazine capacity limit isn’t going to stop somebody who’s prepared to wear 4 different guns.

Then again, having laws isn’t going to stop somebody who’s prepared to break the laws anyway.

What stops a shooter who’s firing at innocent people is being dropped by the gun of somebody else.

I meant he can’t shoot them all at the same time. I guess he must have wanted higher capacity than just one would give him. Which shows that lowering the magazine capacity isn’t going to stop somebody bent on leaving a pile of dead bodies.

Could it be that the information went public accurately until the media got their marching orders? And then they changed the facts.

He was going up against small children and un-armed elementary school teachers. He probably could have done nearly as much damage with a machete, and definitely could have done more damage with Molotov cocktails and homemade explosives.

The focus should be on arming willing teachers, custodians and staff, and on finding out why so many deranged leftist/democrats are on behavior modifying drugs and go on evil rampages... and how do we back these crazies down from their lunacy.

Hillary: “What difference does it make now?” With an indignant dismissive tone to her voice. As in: “You peons don’t deserve to be in the same room with moi.” Just tryin’ to see who’s is bigger. I’m guessin’ hers.

Molon labe.

We will have to wait for the coroner’s report to determine which weapons were used; however, nearly all reports indicate the AR15 was the primary weapon used.

Listening to this old news report, it brings up the matter of whether Lanza was denied permission to purchase a rifle in the days leading up to the crime and whether he had some altercation with the staff the day before. Supposedly, both matters were debunked in later reports, but why would someone make those items up at the time? Was it someone just passing on an unfounded rumor or is their information being withheld from the public? I don’t know. Curious that we haven’t hear much from the investigators for a while.

“Coroner’s report”?

Not sure of CT exactly but:

If such records were publicly available, one would make a request for each and inspect them in person, perhaps being allowed to pay a fee for copies of some documents. Death certificates are generally not available to the public.

I believe the ME has made several statements concerning only .223 wounds to the victims.
